American History (1992)

This is a student film future South Park co-creator Trey Parker made while studying at University of Colorado. The gist of it is that Trey asked his Japanese roommate to talk about American history as he knew which Trey and co-director Chris Graves animated with crude paper cut-outs.

The weird-little film ended up winning a Student Academy Award, and the style would become more pronounced in Trey's long-running TV series.
